What is iBar ?
iBar is a system for the interactive design of any bar-counter. Integrated video-projectors can project any content on the milky bar-surface. The intelligent tracking system of iBar detects all objects touching the surface. This input is used to let the projected content interact dynamically with the movements on the counter. Objects can be illuminated at their position or virtual objects can be "touched" with the fingers.

The iBar system is ready to be installed completely into any kind of bar-counter, there's no need for any further installations on the ceiling or something like that. The software is flexible and can be adjusted and enhanced.

any downtown shop you walk into... no tag... too much!!

Nintendo had something similar @ E3 a few years back.

Think of ibar, except on the floor. Then, instead of rings of light, it was like water, and wherever you stepped, you caused ripples to form on the surface. Like walking on water.

Most trippy thing ever.

I want one.

I saw this on tv a few years back, but the early concept was projected from above... instead of underneath the surface...thats dope.
